Do you want a simple, easy-to-connect, temporary external drive solution for your eSATAp equipped desktop or laptop PC to a internal SATA drive? This is the cable to get! This cable has an eSATAp (powered, external SATA) connector on one end and a standard SATA internal drive connector (with power) on the other end. You can easily connect any internal SATA drive to your PC's internal SATA bus from outside your PC by using this cable and your eSATAp port. Your PC will see the drive the same as if it was installed into your PC, without requiring any software installation. This will support 2.5" and 3.5" SATA HDDs, as well as 5.25" optical drives, when connected to a desktop PC with eSATAp or 2.5" SATA HDDs only when connected to a laptop PC with eSATAp. This difference is due to the fact that the desktop eSATAp port supports up to the 12V output level required for 3.5" and 5.25" drives, while laptop eSATAp ports support only the 5V level used by 2.5" drives. Although this isn't ideal as a long-term solution, because of the exposed drive circuits, it is an excellent way to quickly transfer data to or from an internal drive without going through the hassle of installing it into a PC or an external enclosure at a lower cost than a SATA docking station.
